Fan cut off

I have an old woman who says that she gets cold in her home a lot. Her furnace is running fine. The question I have is that maybe the fan cut off is set too low. It is set to turn off at 110 degrees. Is this too low? What is the normal degree for a fan to shut off at after the furnace stops firing? Thanks for your help.

    Nick you may want to check the heat anticipator on the t-stat. if its adjustable make the furnace cycle faster. Also keep in mind that the old lady is old. An older person is cold no matter what(sometimes). I spent alot of time working in a retirement home that had 200+ water source heat pumps, and found that most of those people wanted 78* or more. Some of them would sit around and feel cold at 80*. Food for thought.

    There is no anticipator. Even if there was, what should it be set at? Do you know what the temerature of the fan shut off should be?
